Eyes Like Jesus (9/19/2021)
Sun, Sep 19, 2021
by Bobby Martin
Passage: Luke 9:23 & Luke 11:33
Series: Everyday Disciple
The ball will go where your eyes are looking – whether it’s basketball, football, baseball, or bowling. When you learned to drive a car you found out you can’t look down at the road, you’ve got to look up and ahead to where you are going. The missed shots, the bad throws, the swerves on the road, they’re usually due to us looking in the wrong direction, or taking our focus of the target momentarily. It’s just a physical principle. It’s a spiritual principle as well. What we view and see often determines the direction of our lives.

"A Body Like Jesus" (9/12/2021)
Sun, Sep 12, 2021
by Bobby Martin
Passage: Colossians 1:16 & 1 Corinthians 6:19-20:0
Series: Everyday Disciple
Do you idolize your body, or do you ignore it? Body idolizers may take a lot of vitamins and supplements, spend a lot of money on health and nutrition, workout equipment, etc. Body ignorers don’t eat right, drink too much, smoke too much, and have a poor idea of exercise. The Bible has so much to say about the body – an incredible amount. And the Bible addresses those who tend to be idolizers and it addresses those who tend to be ignorers. In both extremes there is a self-centeredness that basically says “it’s all about me”. It should be all about Jesus.

by Bobby Martin
Passage: Hebrews 4-15 & Matthew 4:8
Series: No Longer
Somewhere along the way you will be presented with an opportunity to jump ahead, to take a shortcut, to move closer to that goal you are chasing. And the only catch is that you will have to temporarily abandon your values. So what do you do? It turns out that Jesus was made just such an offer in His third temptation. Examining His response will prepare you for when your moment of truth comes.

"Look Before You Leap"
Sun, Aug 22, 2021
by Bobby Martin
Passage: Exodus 17:2 & Deuteronomy 6:16
Series: No Longer
Every day people fall into the temptation of presuming on God. You see it in the young couple that spends irresponsibly and then asks God to bail them out financially. The young single who says, "I'll marry him, then pray for him." But what's wrong with that? Hasn't God promised to take care of us? In this message we will explore the second of Jesus' three temptations in the desert and what it teaches us about presuming on God.

Rocks and Rolls
Sun, Aug 15, 2021
by Bobby Martin
Passage: Matthew 4:1 & Deuteronomy 8:2
Series: No Longer
It is tempting to feel that God is in no hurry to take care of your needs - like the direction your marriage is headed, the fact that you are still single, or the speed at which your career is advancing. Jesus, too, was tempted to take things into His own hands and His response reveals a lot about what is really at stake when we are tempted to act independently from God.

He Is Coming Back For Us
Sun, Aug 01, 2021

We Are Secure
Sun, Jul 25, 2021
by Jesse Hicks
Passage: John 6:37 & John 10:27
Series: A Promise Is A Promise
Imagine a cruel parent, who always threatened his or her child with, “If you do that again, I’m going to disown you as my child! That kind of cruel threat undermines any kind of close relationship. Every loving parent wants his child to feel secure in his love. That assurance of steadfast love undergirds strong parent-child relationships. Even so, the loving heavenly Father wants all of His children to feel secure in His steadfast love. After all, before we even existed, He chose us in Christ and determined that we would be adopted into His family.

The word “gospel” means news. It is the news about who Jesus Christ is, what He has done, and how that changes everything for all of us.

A Great Commission (6/13/2021)
Sun, Jun 13, 2021
by Bobby Martin
Passage: Matthew 28:16
Series: The Mission
The Great Commission has been and is the foundation for evangelism and cross-cultural missions work in Christian theology. Because Jesus gave final instructions for His followers to go to all nations and that He would be with them even until the very end of the age, Christians of all generations have embraced this command. As many have said, it was not "The Great Suggestion." In this opening message we find Jesus commanded his followers from every generation to put our faith into action and to go make disciples.
